Jacks canyon (Asylum) guidebook?
|
I think I’m heading here the first week of April 2020. I have an old handwritten guide of the Asylum from the early 2000’s but am looking for a newer printed guide if that exists? Thanks for any info/ beta anyone can provide. Jeremiah |

Have you climbed there before? In all likelihood it will be way too hot to climb there in April. That place is a solar oven. |

Thanks Kief! So the 2009 version of the guidebook includes the asylum? |

Also on rockclimbing.com there is a good guide for the asylum. |

74 routes in Deidre’s book at Asylum. Ranging mainly 10a to 14a with one just marked “5” “good for beginners |
